HEATED GLASS LENS SOLUTION

LED systems offer many benefits but suffer from one potential issue - reduced heat output. In the past, snow and ice were melted from exterior light fixtures by the heat generated from an incandescent light source. LED light sources lack the ability to heat up the lens. As a result, snow and ice can accumulate and reduce the visual cues that are vital to ensuring the safety of pedestrians, drivers, and aircrews.
